A man has bought $250,000 worth of plane tickets for just $17,000 after the Japanese airline All Nippon Airways listed incorrect prices for tickets due to a currency conversion error, according to Bloomberg.
Bloomberg reports that a man named Herman Yip said he purchased 25 tickets at a major discount after the popular Japanese carrier listed incorrect ticket prices on its Vietnam website. The 32-year-old, who runs a travel website from Hong Kong, said he even purchased a round-trip first class flight from Jakarta, Indonesia to Aruba, via Tokyo and New York, for only $890 – a discount that’s close to 95 per cent off its original ticket price.
